Missouri Republican official: ‘God chose to bless’ women with pregnancies from rape | The Raw Story

stfusexists:

tellwiddit:

These frakkin’ god-believers are persecuting me by imposing their religious beliefs on my life.

That’s VERBATIM what Rick Santorum said about pregnancy resulting from rape. VERBATIM.

That man beat Mitt Romney in debates and is giving the keynote speech at the RNC next week. THIS NEEDS TO BE BLOWING UP RIGHT NOW, BECAUSE THIS IS WHAT REPUBLICANS SUPPORT. THIS IS WHAT A VOTE FOR ROMNEY-RYAN IS FOR.

Why does being Romney’s vice president now seem like a dare nobody wants to take? ‘Eat a plate of my own shit? No no no — you eat it!’ — JON STEWART, on Nikki Haley, Jeb Bush, Condoleeza Rice, Marco Rubio and a cast of thousands all not wanting to be Mitt’s VP, on The Daily Show (via inothernews)

Mitt Romney says he wants to do away with tax deductions for rich people! Well, just SOME rich people. Namely those with second homes. To recap: Mitt Romney wants to end tax deductions for rich people who are so rich, they have second homes. Got that, 99 Percenters? Sorry if we got your hopes up. Also, rich people: sorry if Mitt scared you for a little bit there. Your wealth will remain intact for the most part. But if I were you I'd get rid of those pesky second homes! You know, in case Mitt decides to flip-flop.

Republicans have morality upside down. Santorum, Gingrich, and even Romney are barnstorming across the land condemning gay marriage, abortion, out-of-wedlock births, access to contraception, and the wall separating church and state. But America’s problem isn’t a breakdown in private morality. It’s a breakdown in public morality. What Americans do in their bedrooms is their own business. What corporate executives and Wall Street financiers do in boardrooms and executive suites affects all of us. There is moral rot in America but it’s not found in the private behavior of ordinary people. It’s located in the public behavior of people who control our economy and are turning our democracy into a financial slush pump. It’s found in Wall Street fraud, exorbitant pay of top executives, financial conflicts of interest, insider trading, and the outright bribery of public officials through unlimited campaign “donations. —

President Obama once said he wants everybody in America to go to college. What a snob. There are good, decent men and women who go out and work hard everyday and put their skills to test that aren’t taught by some liberal college professor that [tries] to indoctrinate them. —

Republican presidential candidate RICK SANTORUM, on Sunday’s Meet The Press.

No seriously.  This guy is a fucking dick.

(via the Los Angeles Times)

The thing is, Santorum actually believes this. But in his defense, I can understand his self interest in ensuring fewer people go to college and become educated; he does have a voter base he needs to cultivate, after all.

Really, Congress? You held a Congessional committee on reproductive rights and you did not invite any women? Really? That would be like not inviting any men to a Congressional committee debating the Maxim Top 100. —
